Womankind -- and Storks -- Safeguarding the Future of Mankind

The Space Alien, who reads widely and incessantly, was pleased to read the National Geographic article about caring women in India who protect storks.

The Space Alien has heard that these magnificent birds find tiny humans and carry them to larger humans who care for them until they they reach full size. 

Where the storks find these tiny humans, the Space Alien does not know.  But clearly these gentle birds are essential to human survival. 

Since some of the Space Alien's best friends are humans, this is very much appreciated! 

The Space Alien cannot understand why humans cannot find their own little ones and must depend on storks for this.  Perhaps they just don't know where to look.

The Space Alien will continue to seek answers.  In the meantime, planet Earth owes a vote of thanks to the caring Indian women carrying out their important mission to protect these hard-working and necessary storks.
